Question about online betting

[RickyS]

If I'm betting $20 and it says to win $30 does that mean I'm really only winning $10 or I'll get my $20 plus the $30 making it $50?

20+30.. always get your risk back on a win.

Thanks a lot

Should be $50

[TSZ]

of course it depends on the bookie but 99% sure you get your 20 back

bodog
pinnacle

definitely give you your risk back

like to tsz said it depends on the book...american based Bookmakers generally wouldn't include what you risked in your winnings...20 to win 30 to me would be a +150 line...now euro based books 20 to win 30 would be -200 line or 1.50 in their odds

The odds you are getting will tell you. If you are betting $20 at -200 (or 1.50, 1/2)....you will get back $30. If the odds are +150 (or 2.50, 6/4)....your $20 will return $50 and welcome to the Mall.
